When pasting an entry into jabref, check whether key already exists #8406

Is your suggestion for improvement related to a problem? Please describe.
When I paste an entry into JabRef, I occasionally mess up my library because an entry with that citation key already exists.

Describe the solution you'd like
JabRef should notify me when I paste an entry and an entry with the same key already exists. I think this already happens as part of the import function, but not when an entry is pasted.
